I wrote an analysis on why BABYMETAL’s next album has the highest chance of global breakthrough ever. (translated from Japanese)

Hey everyone,I’m a Japanese fan who has been following BABYMETAL throughout their early history.

After watching RATATATA blow up, the Capitol deal, and the current festival sub-headliner status, I felt we’re standing at the biggest turning point in their entire career.

So I wrote this long analysis trying to explain — with data and timeline — why the next album has an unusually high probability of becoming their true global leap, aligning perfectly with their 3-4 year cycle.

I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts — agreements, disagreements, anything!

Thanks for reading and hope it sparks some good discussion.
